To all whom it may concern.

Be it known that I, HARRY C. GRANT, a citizen of the United States, residing at 10 East Thirty-fifth street, Bayonne, New Jersey, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Electric Motors, of which the following is a specification.

My invention relates to electric motors and artieularly to thoscof toy construction whie1 are made from stamped or pressed sheet metal. 7

The object of my invention is to provide a construction which will dis ense with the use of screws or bolts, and wi permit of the certain projections formed inte ral wit one member-,over the ends of an ad acent memher to effect a strong and durable construc- The novel features will claims herewith.

deferring to the drawings which form part of this: specific-ation,Figure l, is a plan view of my improved motor, the outer ring being shown in section so that the construction of the pole pieces ma be disclosed. Fig. 2, is a view of one of t 1c bearing su port elements illustrated on a larger scae than shown in Fig. 1. Fig. 3, is a view of one of the Eoints before the metal is bent to ernianen't y hold the elements together. *ig. 4, is a side View of one of the elements in which the shaft bearing is located, held by the two ends of the pole piece elements after the ends of the latter are bent to form the; completed joint. Fig. 5, is an end view of one of the bearing elements and front view of a portion of one 01' the pole iece elements, disclosing thc pro'ections ormed on the latter, bent over t e end of the former to form a completed joint.

A, indicates a ring which is providedwith a base flange or plate on the bottom to serve as a support for the'motor, the top of the ring be ng cut away to disclose means for mounting the pole piece elements B and B respectiveler, each of which comprises a piece of so t steel stamped from sheet metal and having a curved central portion b and b respectively, which serveasdpole pieces, and also having extended en s provided with, short projections cc-c-,cetc.(i

be set forth in the B a recess D, inwhich the ends of the hearing elements E and E are held and secured therein by bending the projections c-c-etc. over same, as illustratedin Figs. 4 and 5.

The members B and B are each provided with a hole F, which serve as bearings for the endsof the armature shaft G, on which an armature H is mounted to rotate between the oles b and b.

T c elements B and B are held at about the center of thering A, by means of short stud pieces I and I, which are riveted to said elements at their inner ends, and to said ring at their outer ends, as illustrated in Fi 1. v

The structure is simple and ri id, an may be constructed at a minimum 0 cost, many parts being duplicates of each other, may be assembled in a quick and positive manna-r and is neat and ornamental in appearance.

Having thus described my invention, what I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is

1. An electrical motor comprising an arrriature having a bearing shaft; two pole wire wound magnets having soft metal cores, said.

cores having extensions to serve as 'ivetsy two pole pieces to form the faces of sin poles having central perforations to receive the rivet extensions of said cores, and having four elongatqtl extensions, two of which are bent concentric to the armature shaft and the remainihg twoextended to receive the armature bearing pieces and having in the ends thereof recesses to receive said bearing pieces, the sides of. said recesses being bent over the said bearin pieces when mounted; and bearing ieces. or the armature shaft having centra erforations for the said shaft, and the ends ohsaidbcaring pieces having a squared extension to fit the said recesses provided in the said extensions of the pole pieces. y

2. An electric motor comprising an armature having a bearing shaft; two pole wire wound IiTgi'iets having soft metal cores, said cores havin extensions to serveas rivets; two pole pieces to form thefaccs of said poles having central erforations to receive the rivet extensions 0 said cores, and having four elongated extensions, two of which are bent concentricto the armature shaft and the remaining two extended to receive the armature bearing pieces and having in the ends thereof recesses to receive said bearing pieces the sides of said recesses being bent over the said bear-in pieces when mounted; and bearing pieces or the armature shaft I shaft, the ends 0' said bearing pieces having Correction in Letters Patent No. 931,416,

nume to this specification in the presence of two subscribing witnesses, this twenty-sev- 3o enth day of December 1907.

HARE Y ('3. GRAN '1;

having central Jerforntions for the said u squared extension to lit the said recesses. provided in the said extensions of the pole pieces, and a ring frame having perforetmns to receive the said rivet extensions of the said cores.

In testimony whereoi, I have slgned my Witnesses FRANK M. ASHLEY, A. T. SOHARPS.

It is hereby certified that the name of the assignee in Letters Patent No. 931,416, granted August 17, I909, upon the application of Harry C. Grant. of Bayonne, New Jersey, for an improvement in Electric Motors," wits-erroneously written and I printed Thu liionell Manufacturing Company whereas said name should have l been written and printed '1 7w Lionel Mnmqfirctum'ng Company; and that the said f Letters Patent should be read with this correction therein that the same may conform to the record of the case in the Patent Oflice.

Signed and sealed this 25th day of October, A. D., 1910.
